Remote hookup question

[twinjayhawks]

I have never used my remote hookup on my tractor. Do I need to use both connectors... One out and one return? Or are there 2 remote hookups?

I only have the one control at the right of the seat to control the remote.

I want to purchase a cement mixer that can dump from the remote. Thanks for the help.

Most cement mixers have SA (single acting) cylinders, so they have only one hose. You can use that with your remote by only plugging into one coupler.

Does it matter which connector I use for the cement mixer?
For some implements will I have to use both connectors?

No-one will dump the mixer when the lever is pushed, and one will dump when the lever is pulled-It's up to you how you want it to work.

Yes, if it has a DA (dual acting) cylinder on it that has two hoses.

kennyd, Thanks for the information.

I would like to add an Hydraulic top Link. Will there be any problem using this with my setup?

No sir, not at all...
